Adam Martinakis - 3D digital art

Martinakis’ range of Computer-Generated visual media works with themes surrounding the organic and the digital, often exploring the human form by deconstructing it to vein-like layers. Described as a mixture of surrealism and futurism, Martinakis’ work “combines art, philosophy and science to create works of art that make profound statements about the human condition.”

Adam explains, that he is very interested in the common feelings and situations that we all go through. Childhood, for instance, is a common period of our lives, but as the time goes by it looks more like a dream… Our body is the only home that we really have, and the most expressive tool we’ve got - he sais. Even when we don’t use it, like when we sleep or just sit and think, we always imagine ourselves in our bodies. He uses it as a symbol of human presence.”

So he work into digital environments with the usage of computers and the help of 3d software. The 3d models are created or inserted into the program with many techniques, depending on the needed atmosphere of the artistic content. Materials are set to cover the models and lighting designed to bring light to the scene.
